Create a Git repository template
Generate a Git repository template so that you can use it as a blueprint for new repositories. A template is an exact copy of a repository's file structure and content.
Note: This functionality is available only with the PulseUno Git server.
To create a Git repository template:
-
In your local workspace, open the directory containing the Git repository files you want to copy.
-
Compress the repository's file structure and content into a .zip file. You don't need to compress the .git directory, as the versioned data in the .git directory is not transferred when using the template.
-
Copy the .zip file to the <pulse_data>\conf\gitserver-templates directory on your PulseUno server, for example:
Windows C:\ProgramData\OpenText\PulseUno\pulse_data\conf\gitserver-templates Linux /opt/opentext/pulseuno/data/pulse_data/conf/gitserver-templates -
To make the template available in the user interface, restart Common Tomcat.
You can now use the template to create a new Git repository. For details, see Create a Git repository.
